Transferring Property

The State of Ohio requires the Greene County Auditor's Office to transfer deeds and charge a transfer fee and when applicable conveyance fee when changing the name or legal description of a parcel of land as per O.R.C. 319.20.

Requirements for the transfer of a deed, certificate of transfer, affidavit or court order:

Conveyance fee plus transfer fee: Conveyance fee of $1.00 per thousand dollars of the purchase price plus transfer fee of $1.00 per thousand of the purchase price equals $2.00 per thousand dollars (any pennies are rounded up to the next $0.10)

Example: Purchase price of $245,250. Fee would be $490.60 for the conveyance and transfer fee

A fee of $0.50 per parcel will be charged to cover the parcel transfer
